Samsung is expanding its PC gaming monitor lineup with three new models.
The products are part of Samsung’s Odyssey series. But this time, its latest monitors drop the curved display panels for flat screens.
The first model, the Odyssey G7 G70A, is a 28-inch monitor that offers a 4K pixel resolution. The screen has a 144Hz refresh rate, a Vesa-certified HDR 400 color range, and a 1-millisecond response time.
It also comes with a DisplayPort 1.4 slot and two HDMI 2.1 ports. As a result, the monitor can display a 120Hz refresh rate when hooked up to a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X.
A tier below is the Odyssey G5 G50A, a 27-inch 1440p monitor. The screen’s refresh rate has been bumped up to 165Hz, but the color range has been downgraded to HDR10. The other compromise is the ports: It comes with only a DisplayPort 1.2 slot and a single HDMI 2.0 connector.
With both the G70A and G50A, you can also create a virtual second screen within the monitor, enabling you to game and chat with friends at the same time.
At the low-end is the Odyssey G3 G30A, a 1080p monitor that comes in either a 24- or 27-inch screen size. The product nixes the HDR, but has a 144Hz refresh rate. All three monitors are also compatible with Nvidia’s G-Sync and AMD’s FreeSync technology.
Samsung hasn’t announced pricing or exact availability for the monitors. We’ve reached out to the company, and we’ll update the story if we hear back. The current Odyssey G7, a 27-inch curved monitor, goes for $699.
